The Nokia N810 Internet Tablet is an Internet appliance from Nokia, announced on October 17, 2007 at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco. Despite Nokia's strong association with cellular products, the N810 is not a phone, but instead allows the user to browse the Internet and communicate using Wi-Fi networks or with mobile phone via Bluetooth. It builds on the hardware and software of the Nokia N800 with some features added and some removed.
The Nokia N810 features the Internet Tablet OS 2008 Linux distribution,[1] based on maemo 4.0, which features MicroB, a Mozilla-based mobile browser, a GPS navigation application, new media player, and a refreshed interface.

[edit] Major changes from the N800
The Nokia N810 has much in common with the N800 and Internet Tablet OS 2008 will operate on both, but there are some significant differences between the two. Here are the new features in the Nokia N810:
- Sliding, backlit keyboard
- Front-facing webcam (replaced pop-out rotating device)
- Ambient Light Sensor
- Integrated GPS
- 2GB integrated internal storage
- MiniSDHC card slot (replacing two full-size SDHC slots, one internal, one external)
- Sunlight readable transreflective display.
- Micro-USB (replacing a Mini-USB type B)
[edit] Nokia N810 WiMAX Edition
On April 1, 2008, Nokia announced a WiMAX equipped version of the N810 called the "N810 WiMAX Edition." This device is identical in specifications to the original N810 but includes a WiMAX radio for use initially on Sprint's Xohm network, and features a color change from Light Gray to Black., as well as a larger case-back bulge to accommodate the module.
[edit] Internet Tablet OS
The N810, like all Nokia Internet Tablets, runs Internet Tablet OS, which is similar to many handheld operating systems, and provides a "Home" screen—the central point from which all applications and settings are accessed. The Home screen is divided into areas for launching applications, a menu bar, and a large customisable area that can display information such as an RSS reader, Internet radio player, and Google search box for example. Internet Tablet OS is a modified version of Debian GNU/Linux.
The N810 is bundled with several applications including the Mozilla-based MicroB browser, Macromedia Flash, Gizmo, and Skype.[2]. It is compatible with any software designed for Internet Tablet OS, and supports most common file formats.
Recently, a version of the Debian GNU/Linux distro compiled for ARM processors has been adapted to the N810 tablet as well as to the former models; this allows to run applications like OpenOffice.Org or Abiword which haven't been ported yet for the Internet Tablet OS.
